I saw this information listed on numerous websites, including vet sites. I guess it was old information. I even thought the box said for the use of animals that are 11-22 pounds.

I'm all for learning about the risks involved and sharing. Oh, well. I just thought it would be safer to use the Frontline Top Spot since it was approved for the smaller dogs and the only the only difference is that the Plus kills the eggs. Both products kill ticks. Like I said, I guess I had old information. I was just trying to help out. I used Advantage, but I found out it can be washed off, so I'm shopping around. I'll just use the Frontline Topspot. For the person that said something about a lot of dead dogs....well, I don't trust medicine companies nor do I trust everything a vet makes a buck on. Also, I wouldn't want a sick Yorkie down the road with neurological problems. I was just trying to help out. Vets prescribe steriods like they are going out of style. Steriods can bad news if not used correctly. Sorry, if I sound so grumpy, but there are a lot of people that are just plain rude. If you use it then that's your business, but don't knock me for giving out information that I have found. I'm not lying or making it up. I'm just passing something along that I thought could be useful.
